God-level Miner

Chapter 9 Surface Mining

With a contract of [-] tons of iron ore in his hand and a god-defying artifact, Wang Xudong was so passionate that he came to the mine early the next morning.

Yesterday, the miners mined about dozens of tons of iron ore. In Wang Xudong’s view, this is far from enough, and the mining speed must be increased. Now Wang Xudong can’t wait to mine thousands of tons, or even tens of thousands of tons of iron ore every day. .

Of course, this is unrealistic for such a small mine at present, with a daily mining capacity of thousands of tons, which is a large mine, and the scale of my own small mine is too small.

No, it must be scaled up quickly.

"Boss, you came here so early today."

Tang Zhenqing had been guarding the mine all the time, and when he saw Wang Xudong, he immediately came over in surprise. Tang Zhenqing must have never thought that Wang Xudong would come so early today.

Wang Xudong is happy, full of drive and passion, holding an order of [-] tons of ore, and almost didn't sleep well last night, and drove over as soon as it dawned.

Wang Xudong said: "Uncle Wu, you got up so early, everything in the mine was fine yesterday, nothing unexpected happened."

Tang Zhenqing said: "Everything was normal yesterday. Everyone worked until the evening before calling it a day. Look, it's the iron ore that was mined."

In the ore yard not far away, there is a pile of iron ore, which is the result of yesterday's labor. Tang Zhenqing has worked in the mine for several years, and this is the first time he has encountered a person who can mine nearly [-] tons of iron ore in one day. Condition.

To be honest, Wang Xudong was a little dissatisfied with the output of nearly [-] tons a day. With [-] tons a day, [-] tons could be mined in [-] days. The order of [-] tons in hand would take [-] days.

"Uncle Wu, I want to expand the scale of mining, so I need to recruit people. If you have someone you know well, feel free to introduce them."

Tang Zhenqing said: "Recruiting manpower is not a big problem. You can see that those mines are closed one by one, and many strong laborers are idle at home."

Recruiting people is a must. In addition, Wang Xudong has to buy mining machinery and equipment to expand the scale and quickly form production capacity.

The workers went to work one after another. As the boss, Wang Xudong held a morning meeting for the second time. He mainly announced two points. The first point was recruitment, which was introduced by acquaintances. In addition, some disciplines and precautions were announced.

To recruit a large number of people, it is natural to select excellent miners and increase the salary appropriately. Wang Xudong has begun to consider these issues.

After the meeting adjourned, all the miners began to prepare for the start of work, while Zhou Guoqiang pulled Wang Xudong aside, as if he had something to say.

Zhou Guoqiang said: "Boss, according to our mining situation yesterday and my many years of experience, I estimate that we have mined a large ore vein, and it is very close to the surface. I suggest asking the prospecting team to come and explore. In the near future, I recommend open-pit mining."

Talent, this is real talent!
Naturally, Wang Xudong knows the location of these iron mines clearly. They are very close to the surface. The two to three meters of soil or rocks on the outside of the hillside are full of high-grade iron mines, because these iron mines were gathered by Wang Xudong himself using a system. Preparations have already been made for future open-pit mining.

Wang Xudong knew the location of these iron mines clearly, so naturally there was no need to explore. Wang Xudong glanced at Zhou Guoqiang happily, and felt in his heart that this was a real talent, who had judged the approximate location of the iron mines based on experience.

Wang Xudong waved his hand and agreed: "Old Zhou, I also have a hunch that this iron mine is very close to the surface. Otherwise, we will try open-pit mining."

"Well, I also agree to give it a try." Zhou Guoqiang nodded in agreement.

The two agreed and acted immediately. No one needed to enter the mine, and they were ready to start open-pit mining. When they heard the news, many miners were excited.

"Open-pit mining, it's too powerful!"

"If the open-pit mining really digs iron ore, it will make a fortune!"

"..."

The miners got excited and geared up, ready to start working. There is an excavator in the mine, and it will start digging immediately to remove the soil on the surface. In addition, Wang Xudong called and called several excavators to come over. Before noon, The entire mine was bustling, with several excavators busy.

Knowing the location of the iron mine, Wang Xudong personally commanded several excavators to excavate according to Wang Xudong's requirements. The speed was not slow. The soil was dug up, and truckloads were transported away, and piled up in the distant soil yard.

In the distance, the Sun Family Mine.

Sun Hongshu was in a very depressed mood. Since yesterday, no iron ore has been mined at all the tunneling faces of the mine, and there is no trace of iron ore at all.

Sun Hongshu had a gloomy face and was smoking a stuffy cigarette. Seeing the busyness of Wang Xudong's mine in the distance, he couldn't help asking, "What's the matter over there? There's such a big movement, it seems that there are multiple excavators working."

One of his subordinates immediately smiled and said, "President Sun, you don't know yet, Wang Xudong is going to open-pit mining, and he is digging a lot there."

Strip mining?

Sun Hongshu thought in his heart, idiot.Even if Sun Hongshu was beaten to death, he didn't believe it. Open-pit mining is possible in this area. If you dig a mine, if you are lucky, you can mine a vein. If you are unlucky, the bottom is full of rocks.

Sun Hongshu believed that open-pit mining is absolutely not acceptable, and sneered in his heart when he saw a mine cart coming out of his own mine. Obviously, the mine cart was only mined rock blocks, and there was no iron ore.

A man with the appearance of a foreman came over with a sad face, and said discouragedly: "Mr. Sun, it's an evil door. There are only rocks underneath, and there is no shadow of iron ore. Could it be that those iron ores have flown away?"

With a gloomy face, Sun Hongshu stomped the cigarette butt under his feet, and said fiercely: "Keep digging for me, I don't believe that iron ore can't be mined."

The iron ore near the Sun family mine really flew away, and all of them went to Wang Xudong. It is strange that Sun Hongshu can mine the iron ore.

.........

Wang Xudong was a little excited, and was directing the excavator to dig. The soil was dug out, and the soil was dug about two or three meters. Many people shouted excitedly, because everyone saw a large area of ​​red below.

Iron ore appeared.

Just like peeling the shell of an egg, the soil on the surface is dug up, and the bottom is full of iron ore, and it is still high-grade iron ore. Even though Wang Xudong knew the result a long time ago, he still couldn't restrain his excitement.

Zhou Guoqiang seemed more excited than Wang Xudong. When he saw the big crimson, he ran over immediately and took a closer look. It was undoubtedly a high-quality iron ore.

"Boss, it's really iron ore, or high-grade iron ore!"

Zhou Guoqiang, who is in his forties, is dancing and yelling like a child at the moment.

All around, cheers came and went, the miners kept shouting, and some miners even threw their mining caps into the air happily.

Open-pit mining of iron ore includes open-pit mining on hillsides and open-pit depressions. Undoubtedly, open-pit mining on hillsides is better than open-pit mining on pits. What Wang Xudong is about to start here is open-pit mining on hillsides.

Open-pit mining is a mining method that uses mining equipment to peel off rocks and extract useful minerals step by step in the open-pit or sunken open-pit method under open conditions.

Compared with underground mining, open-pit mining has many advantages, such as fast construction speed, high labor productivity, low cost, good working conditions, safe work, high ore recovery rate, small dilution loss and so on.

Yesterday was mine mining. More than a dozen miners mined nearly [-] tons of high-quality iron ore in one day. If it is replaced by open-pit mining on the hillside, the efficiency will be doubled. The same dozen miners will mine at least two to three hundred tons of iron ore in one day. above.

Without Wang Xudong's instructions, Zhou Guoqiang immediately directed the miners to start mining, drill holes, and then use a special mining splitter to break open the iron ore.

Seeing the iron ore being mined, Wang Xudong thought in his heart that this is equivalent to digging a mountain of gold. Iron ore is money, and every ton of iron ore mined is several hundred yuan.

At noon, the mine cafeteria prepared a hearty lunch, including fish, chicken, and meat. Wang Xudong told him to go to the town to buy it. The iron ore was mined in the open pit, so it was natural to celebrate it.

All the miners, plus the excavator's master, filled two tables with sumptuous dishes. Wang Xudong stood up with a big bowl of white wine, and said loudly.

"Everyone has worked hard, I promise here, as long as you follow me and work hard, I will not treat you badly!"

After finishing speaking, he drank a large bowl of white wine in front of everyone. After drinking, Wang Xudong turned the large bowl down, and there was no drop of wine left in the large bowl.

"it is good!"

Wang Xudong was so forthright, everyone cheered and applauded loudly, obviously, Wang Xudong's boldness convinced everyone.

A lunch greatly narrowed the distance between everyone. After the meal, everyone took a short rest and immediately started working. The roar of drilling and the sound of the excavator working made the mine very lively.

Of course, the news spread like wildfire, and soon reached Sun Hongshu's ears. After all, the distance between the two mines is not very far, only less than one mile away, so the news cannot be concealed.
